These days, festivals are more than just a music lineup—everyone from street cart vendors to world-renowned chefs are stepping up their food game all for the sake of your appetite Instagram (because #foodporn, let's be real). These are the fests every foodie worth her salt should have on her radar.

Outside Lands
Where: San Francisco, CA
When: August 7-9, 2015
Why: The food lineup of everything from ramenburgers to chicken pot pies to a dedicated chocolate shop (I think yes) is just as impressive as the music lineup where bands like Mumford & Sons, the Black Keys, and Elton John will take center stage.

Where: Portmeirion, Wales
When: September 3-6, 2015
Why: Visit the pop-up oyster bar and sip on some bubbly (#fancy) while taking in the gorgeous fairytale-like view. If a banquet is more your cup of tea, sit down to menus created by local Michelin starred chefs.

Wilderness
Where: Oxfordshire, England
When: August 6-9, 2015
Why: Before heading out to watch Bjork's awesomeness, munch and mingle at a long-table banquet fit for royalty where chefs like Raymond Blanc curate local and organic menu's. If you're really feeling a DIY vibe, take a cooking class to learn the craft of artisan bread making or go on a foraging tour to pick wild ingredients.

Outlook
Where: Stinjan, Croatia
When: September 3-6, 2015
Why: This unique festival takes place in an abandoned Roman fort (yes, I said fort), but the scenery isn't the only reason one should trek it out there: Restaurants will be serving up local fare to complement your weekend beach #vibes. And if partying in wreckage doesn't appeal, set sail on the Adriatic with one of your favorite DJs.

Splendour in the Grass
Where: Yelgun, Australia
When: July 24-26, 2015
Why: Stop by the Truck Shop where food carts range from Veggie Patch's handmade sweet potato chips to Hawker's Market Vietnamese street food complete with its own karaoke bar—you know, just in case headliners like Florence and the Machine have you feeling inspired.
